Hmmm... I put a new to me fan on mine when I rebuilt it and it was from a later bus type 4 and it had no marks. I marked mine by lining it up with my original and then tdc while it was in the car. You may have the same kind of thing going on. I would verify TDC and mark it yourself. Not sure if the flywheel can be 180 out. I mean anything is possible I guess.
And your mps should hold air much longer than that. It needs to withstand 17 at a minimum anyway. Holding at 10 seems odd to me but it doesn't really matter in your case. And I am not sure if that kind of a leak means you are out of luck or not. I think I would start looking for a kit and while that is going get that timing mark figured out. So many questions. I would get cylinder 1 at TDC using an Endo scope or a chopstick (using the tire in 5th gear technique). Verify the mark on the flywheel, and verify the position of the rotor. Then I would make a nice new mark on the fan and time the engine. |
